Zoë Wanamaker’s official website at zoewanamaker.com was launched exactly 17 years ago today, 30 July 2019. That means it’s now the same age as I was when I sat down at my desk back in 2002 and put together the first version of it...!
I’m celebrating with special art and special words here: zoewanamaker.com/news.php?id=643
And in the spirit of celebration, I’ve donated to Shakespeare’s Globe’s Wanamaker 100 campaign, which aims to raise £100,000 in honour of Zoë’s dad’s centenary this year. I invite you to do the same, if you can spare anything, and am sure any donations will be much appreciated by The Globe’s team :-)

Thank you so much to everyone who visits Zoë’s website or this blog for your support and enthusiasm.

Celebrating Sam Wanamaker’s centenary
Shakespeare’s Globe celebrated the 100th anniversary of the birth of its visionary founder, Sam Wanamaker, on 14 June 2019. The late actor and director reconstructed Shakespeare’s theatre in its original London home, transforming millions of people’s theatre-going experiences.
As well as looking back over Zoë’s dad’s achievements and its many successful productions, The Globe is looking to the future. The theatre has launched the Sam Wanamaker centenary fundraising campaign with the aim of raising £100,000 (approximately $126,000) to continue the incredible work begun by its founder.
In this short video, Zoë celebrates her dad’s achievements and thanks everyone who supports The Globe.
If you’d like to play a part in the theatre’s future and can spare a little money, you can donate to the fundraising campaign on Shakespeare’s Globe’s website:

Sending all good wishes to the one and only Zoë Wanamaker – she’s every bit as talented, kind, witty and compassionate as you could wish an actress you admire to be.
Happy birthday, Zoë, and many happy returns!

MRS OLIVER: Sven Hjerson is a vegetarian. Sven Hjerson has always been a vegetarian. He’s got a little machine for chopping carrots.
ROBIN: Yes, yes, Ariadne, precious, yes. But why?
MRS OLIVER: I don’t know. Why, the thought of the revolting man! I must have been mad! These things just happen. You try something and people seem to like it, and then you go on, and before you know it, you’ve got someone like that maddening Sven Hjerson tied to you for life.
